    Four of the eight motorcyclist deaths were apparently/allegedly caused by failure to yield from another vehicle. Most likely the vehicles(s) did not see them coming.

    Not knowing if they didn't have them; just want to remark that Headlight Modulators in these four scenarios may/would have given them better visibility, and subsequent yielding by the vehicles they crashed into.

    Few things pucker me up; as much as approaching a vehicle waiting/getting to make a left turn in front of me. Totally on guard and ready to either hit brakes -or- swerve if necessary; depending on additional oncoming traffic.

    Just last night....one approaching from my left and inching over the yellow line, and two from the right inching out like they're missing out on a free buffet. That's how I got hit 2 years ago. It's bad out there.
